Could only catch the second half because of work, can’t comment on the first half.

I was impressed with their 10 and 15 too, who I’ve not really seen before.
Yes Brett Herron is a decent back up to Smith, and Aaron Morris has always been a quality understudy, unlucky with injury but has played quite well under Gustard.

agreed, if they actually spend some time in training working on it, then add Taufua and Brink to the back row mix

Some good play, but just too many errors.

Optimism has taken a hit. :smt010

A season to forget? It’s a year to forget quite frankly, even if we had played better on the pitch!

From what I saw the pack carried on the front foot, Wells looked like he had a good game.

+1. We looked effective when passing and off loading. Who is the architect of the kicking game.

Positives:that could be some back line we have. Like the idea of Muri at 13 and alternating Scott and Taute at 12. It would suit him there far better now he has lost some pace

Fair enough. Happy to agree to disagree. But when you find yourself in the minority don’t start calling people liars. That’s not on.

Is it fair to assume that we just can't be worse next season?

With some of his kicks Ford needs to remember that it’s Nadolo chasing not a Messrs Jonny May, although the former was brilliantly destructive in the carry today and that was some finish (which on any other day could have been chalked off).

Don’t think I’m in the minority,I just get picked out more. There’s probably 4/5 who think the same as I do.

We thought that last year!

But no I agree, I think the green shoots of recovery are there, at the end of the day just hope I can watch the lads in time soon. By the time they open the Crumbie again I’ll be buying the rounds!
